Abstract

Our own data and data from the literature on the regulatory role of the simplest proline-containing peptides GP, PG, PGP, GPGG, and cyclic-PG are summarized. These peptides are involved in homeostasis of gastric mucosa and the anticoagulant and fibrinolytic potential of blood plasma. They also potentiate memory consolidation processes in the central nervous system. The most probable sources of these peptides are polypeptide precursors of collagen, elastin, and enterostatin.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
